About Our Chairman

“Computational thinking is more than just a way to approach problem solving. It’s a way of processing and understanding the world through technology.“

Siegel’s founder David Siegel must have understood this on a fundamental level when he first saw 2001: A Space Odyssey. David cites that experience as opening his eyes to the limitless number of ways that people and computers could interact in the future – and the infinite possibilities for what computers and technology would eventually be able to do on their own.
